Hey, everyone! Since I am convinced that topic about Instagram and its effect is broad and there are many opinions about this issue, I would like to suggest some websites to visit.

Firstly, I suggest visiting https://studybreaks.com/culture/instagram-addiction/ by Vanessa Le because not only it explains negative and dangerous effects of using Instagram, but it also describes experience of a famous person who quit using Instagram for her own good. Moreover, you might be surprised how many bad habits mentioned in the article you have as well.

Another interesting webpage that caught my attention while writing my blog was https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/sep/17/instagram-is-supposed-to-be-friendly-so-why-is-it-making-people-so-miserable. Example of famous fashion blogger who posts pictures in partnership with certain brands was mentioned as well as negative reactions from people seeing those posts. I think it is worth visiting because it explains the power of Instagram and the difference between posted pictures and the actual reality.

Lastly, I recommend visiting https://www.cnbc.com/2016/05/20/the-power-of-instagram-brands-eye-more-social-media-influencers.html and https://www.impactbnd.com/blog/influence-of-instagram-on-buying-infographic because it shows how people buy products based on what they see on their Instagram feed. I believe that the marketing strategy and its influence on people is fascinating and thus I think it is worth reading.

Blackfishing is a term which has been used recently and is describing people, especially women, who are accused of pretending to be black on social media. They use make-up, tanning and sometimes surgeries to achieve a different appearance. This trend appeared in November  when people on Twitter started calling on people to post women who pretended to be black. Consequently, the tweet had more than 23,000 retweets and many responses criticizing these people for doing such thing. They also provided pictures before and after, which show huge differences and changes in their skin tones.

What the Experts Say II

Social media is an open forum where everyone can be creative and permits us to be heard. It provides certain individuals the opportunity to reach wider audiences, crating an online community and space for a discussion. Instagram is well-known social media for sharing pictures and thoughts and its main concern is to have users post appropriate content which does not violate its norms. The common idea is that you should not post a picture which you would not show to your children, boss or parents. This includes nudity or mature content and violence. However, there are different degrees of censorship to control the portrayal of male and female bodies.

Photos of Kim Kardashian West’s bottom are allowed to stay, while female nipples or other bare body parts which do not belong to her or other famous people are considered to be inappropriate and taken do...
